Eczema rash? (spotty not patches)

Has anyone else's baby had a spotty red rash on their legs and arms? A few doctors have seen it and they say its eczema. He's had it for months and it doesn't seem to go away. Sometimes it looks more red and angry and other times it looks milder but never completely goes away. It doesn't appear to be itchy.

Have you managed to get rid of it or lessen the appearance at all?

It's always there, however it looks a lot better after using his eczema cream. It never fully goes away, but it's barely noticeable. I've found the heat makes it worse and more red looking even if his skin is moisturised x

No it's just one of those things apparently, sometimes it's goes away on its own.
